The following table shows the factory defaults for
the Switch 1000 features.
Managing the Switch 1000
The menu-driven interface built into the Switch
1000 is known as the VT100 interface. You can
access it using a VT100 terminal, or a PC using ter-
minal emulation software. You can connect the ter-
minal directly to the Switch or through a modem.
You can also access the VT100 interface remotely
using Telnet running over the TCP/IP protocol.
Remote management is also possible using a Net-
work Manager from 3Com’s Transcend
®
product
range. The management protocol is SNMP (Simple
Network Management Protocol) and any
SNMP-based management facility can manage the
unit if the Management Information Base (MIB) is
installed correctly in the management workstation.
The Switch 1000 supports SNMP over both IP and
IPX protocols.
